"Are you serious? I really can't bear to part with Damao. After all, he's been with me for decades. Although I really want him to stay by my side, I wouldn't feel right if my selfish desires prevented him from being reborn as a human."
Xuanming looked at Yu Haotian for a while, then looked at the ice toad in the sandalwood box in his hand, his face full of confusion.
"In that case, let the toad make the decision for itself."
After Yu Haotian finished speaking, he placed the sandalwood box on the table in the room, then made a Buddhist seal with his hand and used his spiritual power to communicate with the toad.
"Second Elder, the spirit toad said that it is not in a hurry to reincarnate as a human. It wants to accompany you for a few more decades." Yu Haotian told Xuanming the result of the soul-capturing and spiritual communication.
"Big Hair..."
Xuanming burst into tears upon hearing this. He had given up on Damao, but even after his death, Damao's spirit refused to leave, even giving up reincarnation for his sake.
"Great Elder, cause and effect, good karma will bring good results. Although this toad will delay reincarnation, it is also accumulating merits. In the next life, it will have good fortune, wealth, and longevity, and a glorious life." Yu Haotian put his hands together and performed a Buddhist salute to Xuanming.
"In that case, I'll have to trouble you, Holy Son."
After hearing this, Xuanming stopped worrying about it and decided to let him be selfish for once.
After Xuanming made his decision, Yu Haotian extended his right palm, and a golden light soon leaped into it. Then, Yu Haotian formed a Buddhist seal with his hand, sending the toad's soul back to its body in the sandalwood box.
"Your Highness, the spirit toad's soul has now returned to its body, but it still needs to borrow a little bit of your dragon energy to bring it back to life." Yu Haotian clasped his hands together towards Mu Lige and performed a Buddhist salute.
"Dragon energy?"
"I see!"
Xuanming suddenly understood.
It turned out that the doctor of his good disciple's wife's master was the true emperor of Zhaoyang Kingdom. No wonder he always felt shocked by the momentum of a flying dragon soaring into the sky.
"Master Mingjing, please make yourself at your own convenience."
Mu Lige glanced at Yu Haotian with a complicated expression, then fell silent. He didn't know how he would explain to his young wife when she returned from the capital that there was no husband left in the family...
After getting Mu Lige's approval, Yu Haotian made the Buddhist seal again and turned his palm towards Mu Lige. After a while, a wisp of purple aura appeared in his hand.
"Your Highness, I have only taken a small amount of your dragon energy. It will not affect your body. Please rest assured."
As Yu Haotian spoke, he formed a Buddhist seal with his hands and injected the dragon energy extracted from Mu Lige into the toad's body.
"Dongdong~"
With the infusion of purple energy, the ice toad that had been motionless in the sandalwood box actually jumped twice.
"Big Hair!"
Upon seeing this, Xuanming stepped forward, not caring about the coldness, and actually held the 2,000-year-old ice toad that he had lost and found again in his palm, treating it as a treasure.
At the same time, in the capital of Zhaoyang State, in the Imperial Master's Mansion, Ran Qiyue, who was meditating on the bed, suddenly felt a heart-wrenching pain in his chest, and then he suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.
